Good morning. (Or afternoon) I hope everyone had a great weekend. We are on page 55, Step Two.

  • How reliable was the best reasoning regarding man’s ability to fly?
What about people who proved that man could never fly?
  •  What kind of flight did we see in the Fellowship of Alcoholics  Anonymous?
Yet we had been seeing another kind of flight, a spiritual liberation from this world, people who rose above their problems.

  • What did they say made it possible?
They said God made these things possible,

  • Did we feel a little pity for the poor misguided souls?
and we only smiled.
                 
  • What did our sense of reasoning tell us?
We had seen spiritual release, but liked to tell ourselves it wasn't true.

  • Why were we fooling ourselves?
Actually we were fooling ourselves, for deep down in every man, woman, and child, is the fundamental idea of God.

The co-founders did not really believe that true atheism was even possible. You will notice throughout this book that this theme goes with each mention of  atheists. Even prior to allowing God to flow into us, the idea of Him - the ability to believe - is there.

Peace and  Love,
